Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has nominated the Executive Chairman of the Kaduna State Internal Revenue Service (KADIRS), Jerry Adams, as his running mate for the 2027 governorship election in the state. “Today, we take another decisive step in our collective journey towards building a more united, peaceful and inclusive Kaduna State. “Beyond his impressive professional accomplishments, Jerry Adams is a man of integrity, humility and quiet strength. AdvertisementSani’s predecessor, Nasir El-Rufai, introduced Kaduna’s first Muslim-Muslim governorship ticket in 2019 when he dropped his Christian deputy, Barnabas Bantex, and picked Hadiza Balarabe, a fellow Muslim from Southern Kaduna, as his running mate. When Uba Sani succeeded El-Rufai in 2023, he retained Balarabe as his running mate.
